So here it is, the long awaited results of stage 1 of New Rules of Lifting for Women.

I am beyond exhausted of it. I was so ready for a change and am so excited(as killer as stage 2 has started already--) I didn't do the bonus workout at the end with the AMRAP because I left my spreadsheet of what I started with at work and ended up starting stage 2 anyway.. but anyway...

now *Drumroll* here it goes:

Lifting Stats: Started 2/20/13 Ended: 4/19/13

→

Deadlift: 10 lbs → 65 lbs

Shoulder Press: 12 lbs → 17.5 lbs

Lateral Pulldown: 40 lbs →60 lbs

Leg Press*used as sub for something*: 55 lbs →75 lbs

Squats: 10 lbs → 65 lbs

Push ups: went from Knees to toes

One pt DB row *Subbed*: 15 lbs →20 lbs

Calf Raises *subbed*: 15 bs → 25 lbs

Plank: went from 15 secs to 30 secs

Okay now on to the measurements:

So in the end I've lost: 4.45" total and shaved off 6.4% BF (this is a bit off because I apparently was measuring the wrong place for waist.

Now for the Photos: Please forgive the sucky photos, I have now enlisted my gym partner as my professional photographer, I promise stage 2 will look better but you get the point (hopefully)
